A hundred years, the Eiffel tower
reflects itself in the Seine river.
Throughout the year, tens of thousands of visitors
bustle about the vibrant city
to watch the sights and sceneries.
Paris, counting your footsteps, my Darling,
on the Latin street,
Paris, your long hair flies in the wind,
Paris, the coffee shop, Saint Germain,
where we have our first together drinks.
Paris, with Mona Lisa
showing a gentle smile
On the high hill Sacré Coeur,
many artists passing by.
This side is the Opéra
with elegantly dressed people.
That side is the Rue Mouffetard,
Lively, happy and sad with clochards.
Paris remembers Quasimodo
who loves Esmeralda
Throughout the year,
the bells reverberate with sadness.
Paris is full of your footsteps.
Darling, do you remember,
on the love bridge, Mirabeau,
that day, we met each other.
Paris Champs Elysées, so beautiful
The Luxembourg park,
a rendezvous place for morning and noon
If you come to visit Beaubourg,
the streets are crowded with people,
but don't forget Bastille,
it still contains many landmark signs of history...
Paris, the Eiffel tower,
devoted to the Seine river
Throughout the year,
tens of thousands of visitors
bustle about the vibrant city
to watch the sights and sceneries.
Paris, counting your footsteps, My Darling.
On the Love Bridge Mirabeau,
Darling, do you remember,
since that day, we love each other.
